Interestingly, the number two choice for sexiest female profession was lawyer.

When asked about the results, one of Jetcost’s co-founders, Jerome Cohen-Scali, had this to say:

To see flight attendants top the poll as the sexiest for women pays true testament to the traditional stereotypes of attractive women manning the skies, and it was great to see such a mix of professions make the top ten.

The motivation for the poll, besides the obvious PR attention it would generate, was to follow up on a previous poll they had conducted which found that 57 per cent of Britons thought it was important for airlines to hire attractive employees. I know that when I fly I want the folks handling the baggage and refueling the planes to look prettier than average.

What’s your take? Do you care if the flight attendants around you are attractive or is friendly and competent enough?
